Merchant banker regulation consolidates registration, governance, capital, reporting, outsourcing and investor-protection requirements under an update...
Authentication of paper assessment orders upheld, while qualifying repairs, consumables and vendor advance write-offs remain deductible business claim...
The appellant was liable to pay service tax on banking and financial services, but their failure to do so was not willful or deliberate. The non-disclosure of certain assessable items does not attract the extended period of limitation under the proviso to Section 73 of the Finance Act, 1994. No penalty is imposable on the appellant, but they must pay interest on the belated payment of tax u/s 75 of the Finance Act, 1994. The High Court partially allowed the appeal, holding that no penalty is payable by the appellant under any provisions of the Act, but they must pay interest on the belated tax payment.
